The 2022 team put up 59 points before the final whistle against Ball State in the season opener.

The impressive scoring performance dates back to Nov. 20^th when Tennessee defeated the South Alabama Jaguars 60-14. In the following game, Tennessee defeated Vanderbilt at home 45-21. Finally, Tennessee scored 45 points in the 48-45 overtime loss to Purdue in the 2021 Music City Bowl.

Tennessee finished last season ranked 7^th in the nation in points per game (39.3), second in the SEC behind the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Vols should have similar productivity on the offensive side of the ball with 8 returning starters from last season.

Tennessee currently leads Ball State 59-7 late in the fourth quarter.
